“Former Surrey star Azhar Mahmood broke the hearts of a 15,000 crowd at The Oval with a stunning all-round performance that helped steer Kent to a crucial 15-run Friends Life t20 South Group win.

Mahmood top-scored by cracking 60 out of the Spitfires’ total of 181 for 9, ran out home skipper Rory Hamilton-Brown to stifle Surrey’s reply then, with 20 needed from his final over of the game, ran out Zafar Ansari with another direct hit to win the game with four balls to spare and help his side leapfrog Surrey into the qualification places.”
